Any suggetsions what to take as a bandit reward in Cruel? Cast speed or Skill point? I like to tend to the skill point, whats your opinon on that?
I was thinking about the HoT topic as well and I'm trying right now to use AM Blasphemy with Wrath. Ith works better then expected, as you get a good increase in dps but are on a really low mana budget. For trash mobs its great as you get mana on kill due to AM, for bosses I think about swithcing back to HoT with clarity to sustain casting without delays.
I liked the idea you suggested of dropping Wrath for a defensive blasphemy cuse, but that would again rise the need of a +1 curse item as deodre. I'd like to go the COTB route as I think freezing and chilling enemys also helps defensively. So I won't be able to go dual curse.
So far I really like the build, I'm still sticking to leveling weappons
I'm trying to switch to a 4l once I get one that suits the rest of the gear. Whta would you suggest as links?
Schock nova - spell echo - light pen - inc crit
or
schock nova - spell echo - inc aoe - inc crit
I'm trying this build on Perandus now. It's great fun and clear speed is awesome, but survivability is a big issue. Almost every other pack of Perandus' shiny friends kills me.
Just wondering why you decided to drop EB and MOM? Why not ZO/MOM/EB and run AA at the same time?
Wrath is a great DPS boost.
EB and MoM are dropped because the meta changed. You only took those keystones to be able to cast spells without issues and the mana changes completely fixed that.
This build is meant to end up with a 5K life and 3K ES pool by the time you're in your 80s, that's just not possible with EB ZO MOM.
For your survivabillity problems I would suggest high life/ES gear and not to facetank the entire packs unless you have Vinktar's and VP.
Ok thanks for advice. :) This build is probably the funnest I've played. I'll try swapping HoT with blasphemy-AM to full utilise the benefits from Ambush.
Btw have you decided on what to do after Ambush? Assasination or higher DPS from power charges?

or something totally different?
Thanks for your help mate!
Use light pen in your setup. When it comes to bandits, take the skillpoint.
Against bosses you should use vaal clarity, with increased duration you can chain them for the entire map.

Ambush and then take the crit per power charge nodes.
